ASTIGS Outing2011

Astigs Outing 2011 was successfully held at Portofino Beach Resort, Lapu-Lapu City last December 30, 2011 (Rizal Day). Hindrance encountered were, firstly the said time to meet was 8:00 a.m. but then due to Filipino time almost members came maybe around 10:00 a.m. Next was the transportation, for the they weren’t able to find a transportation so they manage to negotiate with the PUJ (Public Utility Jeep). At first the stake was Php of 4000 back-and-forth, so initially decided to commute so as to save much more for the fare. But then the driver said that to make it Php of 1200, then the encharge for the transportation bid it to Php 1100 so it was agreed. Next was to wait for the remaining members (3 members to be exact) that were the most late. So we depart from SM around 11:00 a.m. already. Then next was to look for a store to bought Ice Cubes and Lechon Manok. Next stop was the arrival at Portofino Beach Resort, the said entrance fee was Php of 100 but then it was holiday so the stake was higher than 20 to make it a Php of 120, and was full because it was holiday. So debate arouse if to continue to go in or to choose another beach resort. But decided to go in anyway, besides they already arrive and much more delay to them and to the driver. As they enter that beach resort it was already full and they for sought a spot to make shed. They rent one table and six chairs for Php of 350. Lots of area they spotted but they spotted far left of the resort. Another problem was the utensils to be used for food, a knife to cut the hanging rice, plates to put the viand (Lechon Manok, Grilled Fish and Grilled Pork), and drinking glass. But still that makes the fun, they don’t make a fuss. Then after eating, was the swimming time, picture-picture to hearts content. And finished at around 6:00 p.m. That’s when they said their farewell for each other, and vouch for next time…
